The Cuckoo Rice Cooker is a rice cooking product manufactured by Cuckoo Electronics. The cooker is pressurized during the cooking process which helps the texture and speeds up the cooking process. The cooker can cook between two and ten cups of rice at a time. It also comes with a computerized display and touch panel so you can select the type of rice you are cooking. A hard plastic rice scoop is included and it makes getting cooked rice out of the cooker easy and prevents the cooker from getting scratched.

Tip
Make sure to wash the rice cooker after each use to prevent the build up of bacteria and left of rice in the cooker container. Also empty remaining water from the dew tray after each use.
The "fill to line" measurement is not a measurement of just water but a measurement of combined rice and water needed for that amount of rice. It is imperative that the rice be placed in the “inner pot” before filling it with water or there will be too much water.
Warning
Keep your hands and face away from the pressurized steam release mechanism during cooking and when opening the device.
